Rules and processes designed to decide who gets access to
social housing could be failing those in greatest need, according to new
research from the Chartered Institute of Housing. In Rethinking Allocations, the
CIH found that, faced with not enough genuinely affordable homes, councils and
housing associations are forced to ration the housing they have – and that the
way they allocate these homes can exclude some very vulnerable people. There
are at least four million households in England waiting for social housing, and
this number is growing all the time. Download the report from the CIH website.
